The Myocarditis Foundation attended the Rare Disease Legislation Advocates (RDLA) annual Conference and Lobby Day in Washington D.C.
This conference was open to rare disease organizations and their families to learn more about the legislative process and options organizations have to get their voice heard on Capitol Hill.
On Saturday, February 9th the Vanness family held the fundraiser “A Night to Remember Brad Vanness”, and again it was an incredible success and a true showing of what a close-knit community is capable of when coming together to honor and remember such a well-loved individual.
Brad Vanness passed away from suddenly from cardiac arrhythmia due to myocarditis on April 18th, 2010 and was just 27 years old. Myocarditis struck this beloved man and left his friends and family at a loss for why this happened to Brad, and wondering what exactly is this horrible disease that takes young healthy people so suddenly and unexpectedly.
